As asked by :

1. How did you first get involved in filmmaking?

I studied theatre at Millikin University, but did nothing with it. Until a few years ago, when Dallas and I decided it would be “fun” to make a mock-doc about the swing dancing scene. That was what start Dancing With Gaia. I think that my love of film really came from the Cinema class I took in high school though, taught by Ralph J. Amelio.

2. How did you first get involved in LiveJournal?

I don’t recall how I came across it at first…I posted a couple things when I created my account, mostly about breaking up with my girlfriend at the time. Then I saw that had a link to her LJ in her AIM profile, and I said “hey, I’ve got one of those”, and started journaling again.

3. What is your favorite thing to do in your spare time?

I’m embarassed to say that it’s watching TV. Especially stuff on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network.

4. What was the most daring thing you’ve ever done?

I think it was when I went rock climbing in New Mexico when I was 16.

5. What is the airspeed velocity of an unlaiden swallow?

According to my research, it is roughly 11 meters per second, or 24 miles an hour.
